What is Mandala Art, how does it relate to the dreamtime and how can it benefit you?

What is a Mandala & it’s significance?

The Mandala is a sacred geometrical design enclosed within a circle, representing the physical manifestation of spirit, the universe,

the self and the harmony & balance that lies deep within us all.

The term Mandala is a Sanskrit Hindu word meaning essence & completion, having spiritual significance amongst various traditions such as the Buddhism & Hinduism.

In the Aboriginal Dreamtime the circle represents

a meeting place and a time where everybody meets at a central location to come together and share precious moments and to perform sacred ceremony.

This particular practice is called Open-eye Meditation; used to establish a sacred space, helping us to feel safe & protected so we can centre & balance our energy in a loving environment.

Further instructions come when purchasing one of Mirree's paintings to assist with meditation, transformation & self healing.

Mirree used this particular practise to leave a destructive relationship of 14 years without any help from outside, the benefits are highly transformational and individual to the person & goals your trying to achieve.

Growing into Love this Christmas...

Only 3 Days left and we are doing the xmas count down...

today it is with "Growing into Love"!

Through our experiences we learn about love and how we can learn to receive and give more in balance. Sometimes our giving can be more than our receiving and this can cause imbalances in our love life.

"Growing into Love Mandala" helps us to find more balance and open ourselves up to the learning and understanding of what that love is so that our relationships are more in harmony with unconditional love & less destructive and harmful to ourselves.

Xmas is a brilliant time to harness this principle more to incorporate it into our everyday lives...I still have these Growing into Love mandala paintings and they are excellent for open-eye meditation and start from only $50...

Hope your day was brighter with "Growing with Love" giving you emotional nourishment & fulfilment !

Turtle Dreaming by Mirree

Who wants to Turtle Dream & do you know which Turtle you are?
Every Sunday I will be going into depth into 1 animal, the Turtle is this weekend and the Fiches will be next.

“Snake-Head Turtle with Lotus” ~ EMOTIONS

Also called the "Eastern long-necked Turtle" has a very long neck & looks very similar to that of a snake head, you will often see these Turtles on the road moving about from one water-hole to the next in areas such as NSW, QLD, VIC & SA.
You are swimming through an emotion of experience that will ultimately result in the development and growth of your soul. Trust in this process and let your emotions be your guide in the understanding of this power that lies deep within you. Allow yourself to recognize the true value of this power by coming out from underneath your shell and let it shine to be your greatest gift to the world. Don't ever be ashamed to acknowledge and share the wisdom of your true feelings.

NEGATIVE: Scared, Ashamed, Powerless
POSITIVE: Powerful, Emotional, Confidant

This is what these small paintings can provide you that contain Turtle, depending on their individual message. Meditation allows you to tap into the healing it will provide you, also through quiet spiritual contemplation.

Hope your day was brighter with the Turtle giving you emotional nourishment & fulfilment !

Pink Lotus Flower by Mirree

Lotus Flower ~ Higher Consciousness 

Sometimes in life we really need to step outside of our comfort zone in order to become a better person, we don't really know where it will lead us but I think the most important thing is trust. And sometimes trusting ourselves is a big thing so put your trust in your higher consciousness the one most connected to God or whatever you want to call it. Maybe what we thought was outside of ourselves is in actual fact buried deep within to uncover.

Hope your day was brighter with the Pink Lotus Flower !

Butterfly Letting Go by Mirree

Butterfly Release is about the letting go of someone or something from your life that is no longer serving your highest good. Sometimes in order to move forward onto better and much brighter things, we need to take the time to acknowledge the letting go process of that particular person or thing in our life that we feel has been weighing us down.

It maybe a time of great sadness that we are letting go of or a joy that we need to allow to come back into our lives from this situation and that is perfectly fine.
Just allow this process to unfold naturally, allowing it to bring in greater meaning & awareness into your life. You will come out far stronger & grounded from the recognition of this experience, bringing you healing. So allow Spirit of the Butterfly into your world to heal you.

Hope your day was releasing with Butterfly Spirit !

Day & Night Owl Dreamings by Mirree

Who wants to Owl Dream & are you a Day or Night Owl?
the many Owl Paintings Ive done over years and this is not even all of them.
Can you see your Owl there?
Every Sunday I will be going into depth into 1 animal, the Owl is this weekend and the Dragonfly will be next.

DAY & NIGHT OWL ~ HIDDEN SIGNS & MESSAGES
You maybe wondering about the meaning behind "Day Owl" (my most popular painting to date) well many years ago about 2009 actually I wanted to find more out about seeing Owls in the daylight hours & why on numerous occasions I was seeing them and what do they mean. Well after speaking to an Elder I was informed that the Owl can bring a message to the family that is related to death. This warning was for me at the time of my Nan's passing. But I also took that as a message from within & saw that the "Daylight Owl" meant we were bringing to light something that is hidden from view and the Night Owl is still waiting to be understood, delving deeper The Owl captures messages that remain hidden & far from view. Are you taking the opportunity to listen to the deepest part of your soul? Is there anything that you need to release from your life? Take some time out to listen deeply to those subtle messages that the Owl is bringing us today; this will re-align you to the mysteries of your soul path. It is an important time to hear your inner voice, trust and allow the hidden signs to come through and move forward with your newfound knowledge with confidence.

NEGATIVE: Darkness, Ignorance, Stagnant
POSITIVE: Release, Truth, Soul Purpose

This is what these small paintings can provide you that contain Owl, depending on their individual message. Meditation allows you to tap into the healing it will provide you, also through quiet spiritual contemplation.
Hope your day was brighter with the Owl giving you the Messages you require !

You can buy a Owl for bringing focusing on your messages and yourself for as little as $50 visit here: www.artworksbymirree.com OR message Mirree your requirements.

Who wants to Wren Dream & do you know which Wren you are?
Every Sunday I will be going into depth into 1 animal, the Wren is this weekend and the Owl will be next.

SUPERB WREN ~ HIGH VIBRATIONS

The Wren has a distinct high pitched call that they use as their main communication and it through the sound of this call that our vibration is lifted when we take the time to venture outside in nature. Wrens are usually found in most places in a variety of dense & domestic gardens. So allow your heart to feel the vibration through the sounds & colours within nature. Love is the purest and most highest vibration that heals, up-lifting your soul. Allow nature to up-lift you by seeking safe refuge as your heart listens to the sounds, calling you home to your very own personal & spiritual sanctuary, this resides deep within the heart that burns within you. Can you hear it's call?

POSITIVE: Divine Love, Peace, Spiritual Home
NEGATIVE: Hatred, Anger, Darkness

This is what these small paintings can provide you that contain Wren, depending on their individual message. Meditation allows you to tap into the healing it will provide you, also through quiet spiritual contemplation.

Platypus Dreamings by Mirree

Who wants to Platypus Dream & do you know which Platypus you are?

The New Moon is nearly upon us and an excellent time to take into action the advice from Platypus, follow your instincts & you'll know what to do.
Every Sunday I will be going into depth into 1 animal, beginning with the Butterflies last weekend, featuring the Platypus this weekend and the Wren next weekend.

PLATYPUS ~ SPIRIT CLEANSING/CEREMONY

Because the Platypus is so closely linked to the Life Cycle, it is a beautiful & loving creature that has dominion over the water and mud elements, due to it's masterful ability to forage for food with it's powerful duck like bill. It finds everything it requires for continual nourishment, being one of the few venous mammals, which has a small defensive mechanism on the males ankle designed to kill small animals & causing severe harm to humans.

So with all this in mind, it is a very similar to our own lives in that, we need to retreat when we feel our energy is low or we feel weak or threatened. This is our bodies natural communication ability telling us that something is not right and we need to take the time out in order to understand what it it that is causing us to feel this drain.

So taking advantage of the cycles of the moon is an ideal time to maximise our natural ability to know the answers & letting go for spiritual release.
Nature is the best antidote for revealing pressure, tension, depression & stress. So allow the Platypus to help you find your way back to yourself in nature and let the moonlight guide you. Cleanse your spiritual energy by spending sometime near water this weekend to rejuvenate, cleanse and connect with your spirit. Use whatever plants and herbs to also assist in your cleansing & this will ideally bring to light your current challenge to solve.

This is what these small paintings can provide you that contain Platypus, depending on their individual message. Meditation allows you to tap into the healing it will provide you, also through quiet spiritual contemplation.

Hope your day was brighter with Platypus protector that is awaiting for you to uncover !

Animal Totems by Mirree

Do you know which is your Animal Totem?
Would you like to know the Animal that will help you on your Spiritual Journey through life?

(Pictured below are 16 of the 22 Australian Animal Totems completed so far that contain their simple names, there will be 44 altogether, then the International Animals will be followed)

Here is a bit about what Mirree specialises in painting & a bit about the Totem System which is very complex, I have only touched on a few in Australian Aboriginal Culture.

Mirree was born in the regional town of Dubbo, in the Central West of NSW Australia, Dubbo means red dirt in the Wiradjuri language. Dubbo’s red dirt, a symbol of the country in which Mirree was born and to which she is spiritually connected, inspired the artist to undertake the creation of a series of 44 Animal Dreaming Paintings, these 1 meter paintings depict Aboriginal animal totems.

There are many flora and fauna totems that are significant to Aboriginal Australians. The totem system is complex and powerful, signifying the close relationships a person has to other individuals, their group or tribe and to a particular ancestral figure, as embodied by a specific animal or plant. There are individual and clan totems.

Clan totems are shared by tribal groups and are passed down through common female or male kin lines. Affiliation with these totems indicates membership in the clan, strong ties to territorial & mythological stories & totems that warn of any impeding danger. Individual totems are not inherited from family members but signify a person’s special relationship to a particular animal or plant.

Mirree specializes in painting individual Animal totems, through a painting for someone & asking the relevant questions she is able to understand the Animal Totem that is watching over you. Sometimes we can have a main one and others come and go throughout different stages of life. But knowing your main one helps you understand your gifts, leading you to your life purpose.

Would you like your very own personal Animal Totem, starting from $129, there is much knowledge to learn for you.

Contact us today, Mirree is waiting to paint your Personal Animal Totem.

Crimson Rosella ~ Love Birds by Mirree

Are you still learning what love is? Crimson Rosella is teaching us...
Crimson Rosella – Love Birds

The Crimson Rosella teaches about the lessons of love. Sometimes in life due to our past experiences or even harsh negative experiences from childhood, we are still in learning what love is. This applies to every relationship, but more importantly to close relationships involving 2 people.
In this painting though there is only 1 Crimson Rosella, which is telling you that the relationship to yourself and the love that is coming from yourself is vital to any other love relationship you maybe having or are currently involved in or want to be having in the near future. It is through the love we give to ourself that we will be able to come to an understanding of what love is & what we require in a relationship and this includes what we give to another.
Here is the Crimson Rosella is pictured with the native flowering plant 'Common Myrtle', also grown in Europe, Africa & Asia.

Hope your day was brighter with the Crimson Rosella!

Currawong ~ Ghosts from the Past by Mirree

Are you afraid to feel... what is the past showing you? Currawong with show you the way...
Currawong - Memories/Ghosts from the Past 

The Currawong teaches us about lessons from the Past. Is something re-occuring in our life to show us something we may have missed from before. Well the Currawong is here to show us what that might be. Currawong doesn't muck about, it hops from one area to another, constantly on the move to find what it needs and always in most cases forsaking themselves and others in there stride to get there. This is not the way to overcome a situation and will only result in the ghosts to be even more felt & heard. They eat mainly worms, ants and beetles, also taking baby birds & eggs from their nests & stealing from other birds in order to gain for themselves. They are responsible for spreading 'Asparagus Fern' which originated from Africa. They are the masters of spreading weeds about. A powerful bird indeed with a powerful message for us all.

Hope your day was more meaningful with Currawong.

Butterfly Dreamings by Mirree

Who wants to Butterfly Dream & do you know which Butterfly you are?

It's Labour Day here in Australia tomorrow, so we are having a long & relaxing weekend, we hope everyone else in the world is too.
Every Sunday I will be going into depth into 1 animal, beginning with the Butterflies this weekend, followed by the Platypus the next weekend.

BUTTERFLY ~ LIFES CYCLES

Because the Butterfly is so closely linked to the Death & Rebirth Cycle, it is a beautiful free-spirited creature that brings support to this kind of transformation within, without attachment because, once it's left the chrysalis, it's free again to move freely about. There is a lot we can learn and uncover in a lifetime & especially about nature & ourselves but instead of stopping and taking the time to heal and understand, we keep going in this fast-paced world.
So what butterfly reminds us of is our cycles of transformation within our heart & soul learning.
The Butterfly provides us with healing & transformation. Depending on the Artwork you are focusing on with your healing in mind, it can bring you emotional release from grieving from a loved one or a family member, healing wounds from past relationships. It is also a chance to bring transformation in by providing you with the understanding of the old, this then allows the new beginning to unfold. This is what these small paintings can provide you that contain Butterfly, depending on their individual message. Meditation allows you to tap into the healing it will provide you, also through quiet spiritual contemplation.

Hope your day was brighter with the Butterflies of new life that are awaiting you.

Sacred Birthing Place by Mirree

This story is about a Sacred Birthing site that got destroyed near my fathers country out of careless and mistreatment. So this dreaming is about the healing & the creation of bringing something into reality. Focusing on what can be changed rather than what was destroyed replaces it with what will always be there, remaining in the heart of the people who remember. Hope your day was brighter with this Sacred ceremony.
